The annual rose and carnation night 

 of the Lenox Horticultural Society oc- 

 curred March 7, and was the most suc- 

 cessful of any ever held. Some sixty 

 vases were shown, of the leading va- 

 rieties, and the quality was high. Bea- 

 con seemed to be the most popular scar- 

 let, Winsor for pink, White Perfection 

 and White Enchantress as whites, Pink 

 Imperial in the dark pink class, and En- 

 chantress in the light pink. Mrs. Patten 

 outclassed Variegated Lawson and Harlo- 

 warden showed strongest among the crim- 

 son varieties. The new crimson, Harvard, 

 shown by J. D. Cockcroft, of Northport, 

 L. I., as well as Wanoka, exhibited by 

 the Wanoka Greenhouses, Barneveld, 

 N. Y., were given the society's highest 

 award. 



A splendid vase of gardenias was shown 

 by F. Heeremans, whose success with 

 them has been far above the average. 

 Stocks cut from 4-inch pots running from 

 thirty to forty inches in length were 

 shown by A. H. Wingett, the varieties 

 being Queen Alexandra, Beauty of Nice, 

 and Princess Alice. A mammoth bunch 

 of 300 Princess of Wales violets, which 

 for length of stem and general good 

 quality could not be surpassed, was shown 

 by F. Heeremans; also, the new Boston 

 violet, sent by Wm. Sim, of Clifton- 

 dale, Mass., which unfortunately arrived 

 in poor condition. Roses were exhibited 

 by A. H. Wingett and F. Heeremans, 

 also a salmon-pink sport of Beacon carna- 

 tion by the former.

 ners: First prizes to F. Heeremans for
